A truly remarkable bb card/memorabilia collection

Whilst we have been fortunate to view countless world class baseball card and memorabilia collections including Sir Edward Wharton-Tigar, Barry Halper, Lew Newman, Corey Shanus, Jerry Taylor, Bill Heitman, Mike Berkus...to name a few. And we have had the good fortune of spending many hours researching the collections at the Boston and New York Public Libraries, Negro League Museum as well as the Burdick collection in the print room at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, we believe that the Library of Congress Collection of baseball images, memorabilia and cards is second only to the Hall of Fame Collection (only a fraction of which is on public display_

You can get an inside look at the remarkable Library of Congress Collection in a new book called Baseball Americana.

We think it is one of the two best baseball card/memorabilia books ever to come to press. Our all time favorite remains Douglas-Congon-Martin and John Kasmanian's 1992 book- "Baseball Treasures" Memories from the National Pastime.

For those interested Baseball Americana can be purchased on Amazon.
Occasionally a used copy of Baseball Treasures appears on Amazon, as well.

If you have serious interest in the history of the game and want to take a peak at the finest memorabilia extant, we urge you to spend time
with these true American Treasures.

May the New Year bring many great finds...
